Our Specialty this week is Hon. Mr. Ouimet said that the action of the Government in the past with regard to this matter was the best evidence of its in- tention for the future. ’ The Government roposed to aphere to the old policy as laid Sewn by the old chieitian, which was that dBfifish by abaymot McCasihy him-play, ”Help was to strangle the plaintifl' before he could be heard. Mr. Davin spoke against the amendment. Mr. Maclean (York) also opposed the amendment. He said thut Mr. Tarte had professed to show the course of the Con- servative party, and he proposed to show the course of the Liberal party. He read a. number of extracts from The Globe to show that the chief party organ had steadi:y op- posed remedial legislatiox. He also quoted from the Pope’s encyclical letter on the Mimic" .» : -‘1001 case to show that the Holy . l , as not opposed to public schools. Before leaving for Paris, France, to at- tended -. .-,- :. Behring Sea. arbitration Sirâ€" John il.-...upson was presented with a. cogi i tulatory addzess and in replying said he oped the members would hear of a speedy prorogotion. It was a most significant speech, and is regarded here as not only giving the opin- ion of Manitoba on the school question, but also of a large number of that important art of the House known as “the back enches” for Ontario. The feeling there, undoubtedly, is that the reference to the Supreme Court can do no great harm, but that under no circumstanceswhatever must the Dominion Parliament interfere with Manitoba’s absolute control of the school assim- ..

Macdonald of VVinnipe rose tospeak on the Manitoba school quea ion. .1. o - u. - He. continued at some length, and claim- ed that the minority in Manitoba had been treated with barbarous tyranny and that not one hour should have been lost in granting relief. He then devoted some time to considering the Ottawa. despatches to The Toronto World of Nov. 27 and 28, in the last of which it was stated that Mr. Laurier would find it difficult to blame the Governz. ..; for referring the matter to the Supreuw Court. He thought the appeal a makes' vnvuc The legal questions, he said, must be settled before any remedial 1e islution could be properly dealt with. Tfie legal uestions mustinevxtebly come up before 1: e courts. If the Government attempted to pass remedial laws before the legal ques- tions were settled by the Supreme Court it would only lead t_o_ confusion. ‘ The Government was halting, hesitating, afraid to decide between the Protestants of Ontario and Catholics ot Quebec. There was a higher and nobler ground if the Gov- ernment could have brought its coura e up to striking point and have decide the vuestion from the standpoint of the bene- fit of the whole country. He was a firm believer in provincial rights, which was the poEcy of the Liberal party. Sir John Thompson rose at 10.50. He said that the Government had been attack- ed as it it was destroying the rights of a province to manage education, but it should be remembered that although the 92nd sec- tion of the British North America Act gave the control of education to the province, it was under certain reservation and restric- tion. A A “That is a question which has to be de- cided and I am certain, after having heard the First Minister, that no responsible man pan fail to feel, whatever his opipion .may be as to the right or wrong of’the Mani- toba. School Act, that the Government has noted in an impartial manner in referring this matter to the courts. Dealing withvthe assertion that the Man}- toba Government would bow to the judg- ment of the Supreme Count, hesaid that did not cover the whole case, because it was based on the flea. that the Supreme Gourt would not interfere with the Legisla- tion of Manitoba. It must be remembered that the very question referred to the Sn- preme Court was very dangerous. His concluding sentences were very strong: “I can promise now that if it is desired that the Roman Catholic minority in the Province of Manltoda. have the right to ap- peal to the Governor-in-Council for reme- dial legislation, and if the Governor-in; Council‘ decides to. grant that remedial legislation, if the hon. member for L’Islet (Mr. Tarte) will then move a vote of cen- sure upon the Government, I will be very glad tg‘ second it.” 1" I! 111 ,‘A, At 9.15 Hon.

Mr. Foster laid on the table copies of the minutes of the negotiations which took place between Mr. Blaine, Gen. Foster and the Canadian delegates in February of last year. The papers are very voluminous and would make five or six columns. The most interesting part is that which covers the point which has been in contro- versy between General Foster and Minister of Finance Foster, as to whether the Cana- dian delegates could have obtained recipro- city on any ether basis than discrimination s ainst Great Britain, and an assimilation 0% the customs and excise tariffs of Canada. and the United States on the lines of the latter. Hon. Mr. Foster answered all questions at length and all evidence went to show that Jas. G. Blaine had insisted that reciprocal trade could only be estab- lished by the adoption of a. uniform tariff for both countries. no more right. to abolish the Separate schools than the Legislature of Quebec would have to abolish the English language in the Province of Quebec. He claimed that the Dominion Government ought to protect the Catholic minority. l T A2__ I He held that the Minisfer of Justice bound himself not to abide by the judg- ment of the Privy Council, but to give temedxal legislation. .A ~A "_ On Wednesday the debate on the Maui- toba schools was continued. “That-Tall the words after ‘that’ be struck out and the following substituted: ‘That this House desires to express its dissatisfac~ tion of the Government in dealing with the Manitoba school question, and in assuming to be possessed of judical functions conflict with their duty as constitutional advisers of the Crown, which assumption is wholly unknown to the law, and if now acquiesced in would be entirely subversive of the prin- ci le of Ministerial responsibility.” 1: defending it he said that in the Pro- vince of Quebec the children were better educated than anywhere else in Canada and held that the Manitoba Legislature had OTTAWA, March l3.â€"On -Monday has Mr. J.
